Emma Heath
$11 per hour for 1 child

Hi! I am Emma and am taking a gap year, heading to The College of Wooster next fall. I would describe myself as dependable, outgoing, and empathic. I love working with kids because they allow me to see the world in a different perspective. I am proficient in meal and snack preparation, activities, and communication. I have been working since I was 15, but as I have become more responsible for the care of my grandparents, I have found it to be a passion. I am also open to running errands and cleaning.

My name is Djina, and I have experience providing compassionate care for senior citizens. Through my caregiving work, I've learned the importance of patience, empathy, safety, and building trusting relationships. I'm comfortable assisting with daily activities, providing companionship, preparing meals, and helping create a clean, comfortable environment. As a mother of a young son, I also understand the importance of providing a safe, nurturing, and supportive environment for children. Being a parent has strengthened my patience, organization, and ability to respond calmly to different situations. I'm dependable, hardworking, and genuinely enjoy helping others. Whether I'm caring for a child or a senior, I treat every person with kindness, respect, and the same level of care I would want for my own family. I'm always willing to learn, communicate openly, and do my best to provide excellent care. I enjoy spending time with children and helping them learn and grow. I believe in creating a positive, safe, and engaging environment where children feel supported and parents feel confident that their child is in good hands.

"We absolutely LOVE Isa — our family was so fortunate to have found her through UrbanSitter. I'm a first-time mom, and it took me a long time to find a full-time nanny I could trust to care for our sweet infant boy. Our boy connected with her immediately, and we couldn't have asked for anyone else to care for him. Her calming presence was also perfect for parents like us who work from home. We feel so lucky UrbanSitter helped us find someone who has truly become a part of our family."

"I was so stressed about finding a part-time nanny for my 14-month-old son, who has moderate separation anxiety and hadn't been left with anyone but family before, but we were both immediately at ease in Buhay's presence. Her empathy and commitment to understanding child development are apparent in every interaction I've witnessed between her and my toddler. I feel very lucky to have found her."

Kamilah W., mom of one

photo of quoted parent Eric

"Erna watched our now 5 year old daughter and 3 year old son for a few years. She is punctual, responsible, honest, and playful. What we appreciated most was that she was thoughtful in ensuring that we had a little break; for example, when the kids were clingy, she was able to divert their attention with games or songs or walks to the park. We felt very comfortable leaving our kids with Erna because of her caring nature and experience that spans a decade (including being a live-in nanny)."
